1970 Map of Paddock Valley Reservoir

About this map

Paddock Valley Reservoir dominates the high-desert landscape of western Idaho, its waters contained at an elevation of 3,210 feet as shown during this 1970 field check. The terrain is defined by a complex network of drainages and seasonal water sources, from the prominent Little Willow Creek and Indian Creek to smaller features like Hog Cove Creek and Rattlesnake Creek. This area, straddling the Washington and Payette County line, was mapped during a period of managed irrigation and livestock grazing, evidenced by the numerous Springs and the smaller Soulen Reservoir to the north. The topographical detail reveals a landscape utilized for ranching, with Jeep Trails and fence lines cutting across Little Willow Flat and winding through deep-cut features such as George Way Gulch and Cherry Gulch. A Flowing Well in the southwest corner further underscores the critical importance of water management in this arid environment.
